    INTRODUCTION

    Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life. Simple enough advice from the wise old Confucius but how many people actually put such valuable counsel to practice?

    If the amount of frustration and stress in today’s society is anything to go by, it’s fair to say not many are living passionate and purposeful lives.

    Just as there are no instructions given to parents on how to raise happy children or to newlyweds on how to have successful marriages, little of our education focuses on teaching us how to follow our hearts and achieve our dreams.

    This is where CREATE A LIFE YOU LOVE: A STRATEGIC PLAN TO ACHIEVING YOUR DREAMS comes in.

    Based wholly on the maxim if it’s to be, it’s up to me, CREATE A LIFE YOU LOVE is designed specifically for people who are confused about what to do with their life or simply need confirmation about the changes required to turn their life around.

    The fact is you can do and become anything you want - believe anything less and you will sell yourself short.

    This book consists of 3 parts, practically titled Passion, Purpose and Plan. Section 1 involves looking at WHO YOU ARE. In order to discover your purpose in life it’s fair to say you need to have an excellent understanding of your inner self.

    The exercises here will help you get reacquainted with your passions, your loves and dislikes, both now and in the past.

    We then move onto section 2, titled: WHAT DO YOU WANT? Once we know what lights the fire inside your heart, we can look at creating a purpose. The exercises here will help clarify what you wish to achieve out of life, with regards to goals, career options and other secret dreams.

    Finally it’s section 3: HOW WILL YOU GET YOUR GOALS? Once you have your passion and purpose clearly defined we can begin working on the action-oriented stuff and explore the planning side of things.

    For as much as it’s great to know what you are passionate about, it means little unless you take action on it.  This section shows you how to take steps towards your goals. It also explores motivating factors, possible obstacles on your path to success and how to create strong support structures.

    Going through the exercises will take time but I promise you it will be time well spent. This is NOT a typical self-help book where you just cruise through the pages, expecting some miracle to occur.

    You will need to do some WORK. You will need to use your MIND and check in often with your HEART.  It will potentially be difficult but it will be well WORTH IT in the end.

    Remember this: every human on this planet has the power to change his or her reality and steer him or herself in a different direction. Life is short and there’s no better life to live than one that you truly love.

    If you are still deciding which path to take in life CREATE A LIFE YOU LOVE is perfect for making sure you choose the right path BEFORE you begin your journey.

    As for those who have walked too many miles in the wrong pair of shoes, please don’t stress. It is NEVER TOO LATE to take off those ill-fitting shoes, turn around and begin heading in the right direction.  As Mae West once said: you only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough…

    Part 1: Who are you?

    Are you just like Alice in Wonderland?

    In the eloquent tale by Lewis Carroll, there is a scene that epitomizes how many of us feel in life. It‘s when Alice, who is completely lost and doesn’t know where to turn, asks the Cheshire cat for some help.

    Would you tell me please which way I ought to go from here? asks Alice.

    That depends a good deal on where you want to go, replies the cat, which is perched up high in the tree.

    I don’t much care where, says Alice.

    Then it doesn’t much matter which way you go, he responds.

    So long as I get somewhere, Alice adds as an explanation.

    Oh you’re sure to do that, grins the cat.

    WHY SETTING GOALS IS SO IMPORTANT

    Imagine sailing off on a grand voyage with no charts or pre-planned course, just hope and determination to get you there. That would be crazy, right? Yet that is what so many of us do when we venture off in life: we wish and pray for the best but set no concrete goals or strategies which map out how we will achieve our objectives.

    Many of us think if we just work hard and stay active then it doesn’t matter if we don’t have specific goals. Well neither does it mean you are necessarily getting ahead – is it really any surprise when you don’t arrive at your preferred destination?

    The fact is you need to have a clear plan and clear direction to achieve your dreams in life, especially if your goal is to be happy, healthy and wealthy in whichever way your heart defines this to mean. This is what this book is all about.

    The purpose of this plan

    The purpose of this book is simply to help you determine where you are now and where you want to be on a
